Feeling like a kid again

Good for you. I remember as a boy, classified ads in Outdoor Life and Field & Stream would buy squirrel tails. You would have made some real drug store money back then.

And I've had the pellet gun for over 30 years.
Not bad

I have a new Benjamin that I bought about 20 years ago but the one I'm really proud of is my Dads from when he was a kid. My dad is 82 now. It still shoots great really it shoots better than the new one. Is it wrong to call something 20yo new?

Or send it back to Crossman.

You might just need to oil the seal. My Benjamin has an oiling port for that and if you don't keep them lubed they leak like air like crazy.

From my stand point of 71 years,20 years is real new.
